Chuck, I'm putting together a system. I'm thinking of upgrading my Belle Klipsch's with Greg Roberts vtrac horn, beyma tweeter and ALK universal crossover. I'd drive those modded horns with my C2200 w/ tele's and for and amp I'm leaning towards an MC275. Horns, tubes, a pair of F112 subs.... Rock and Roll

I am in no way implying that your modification will not make the Belles a better speaker. But now that PWK is gone and Klipsch has basically abandoned fully horn loaded speakers and R&D (except for keeping the Klipschorn and LaScala alive) I hate to see the originals not kept original.

I agree but that's what's so elegant about Greg Roberts vtrac kit.
The Belle components unbolt and the vtrac assembly and crossover bolt in.
Completely and easily reversible to the original components.
Other mods require butchering the original cabinet and/or motorboard.
Greg Roberts is a real craftsman.
